  2. Wifi icon not appearing in taskbar

    If ending the task in Windows Explorer did not resolve your concern, we recommend restarting the Windows Explorer. Follow the steps below:

    • Right-click the taskbar to open the Task Manager.
    • Locate Windows Explorer under Processes tab.
    • Right-click Windows Explorer, then click Restart.

    The wireless icon should be visible now on your taskbar.

    Get back to us with the outcome so we can help you out further.

    ALL icons missing/blank (desktop, taskbar, explorer)

    Hi all,


    • - Had the laptop hooked up to the TV last night via HDMI
      - Unplugged, then closed lid - putting it to sleep
      - Turned on today, no icons whatsoever.


      - Tried restarting the laptop
      - Tried restarting 'explorer.exe'

    Any tips for getting them back? It's annoying the hell out of me!

    Thanks in advance!

    Also:
    When I open the explorer when uploading or downloading something, the icons are there..

    Here's a pic:
